Changes in Motion
Section 4.1
• Force is simply a push or pull
• It is an interaction between two or more objects
• Force is a vector so it has magnitude and direction
• In the SI system, Force is measured in Newtons (N). In the English system, it is measured in pounds.
• 1 pound = 4.445 Newtons
• The total force (or net force) exerted on an object is the vector sum of all forces acting on it

Aristotle & Galileo
• Aristotle was a great philosopher but not such a good scientist.
• Aristotle’s theory of motion is wrong.
• Took 2000 years before Galileo got motion right.

Motion according to Aristotle (I)
• Every object has a “natural” state.
• In “natural motion”, “Earth” elements (stone, apple, you, etc.) are drawn to the Earth.
• Heavier objects are more strongly attracted so they fall faster (stone falls faster than a feather).
Aristotle
Reality
Important: These are Aristotle’s ideas, but he’s wrong!

Motion according to Aristotle (II)
• Pushing or pulling an object causes “unnatural” motion (or “violent” motion).
• If cause is removed (stop pushing) then object returns to “natural” state and stops moving.

Inertia section 4.2
• An object’s tendency to persist in its original state of motion
• This concept was first discovered by Galileo in the 1630’s.
• Objects will keep doing whatever they’re already doing unless something causes it to change.

Isaac Newton
• 1642-1727, Lincolnshire, England
• Professor and Scholar at the University of Cambridge
• One of the most influential scientists of all time
• Uncovered universal laws of motion and gravity among many other discoveries.
• Most famous work: Principia

Newton’s First Law of Motion also referred to as the “law of inertia”
An object at rest remains at rest & an object in motion remains in motion*,
unless an outside, unbalanced force acts on the object.
*Moving in a straight line with constant speed.

Newton’s First Law of Motion
• An object in motion can still maintain its state with a force acting on it.
• It’s only when the forces acting on it are unbalanced that an object can change its motion!
![Page 11: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Newton’s First Law of Motion
• The Gare Montparnasse
in France crashed
through this wall in 1895,
why?
• Trains are difficult to stop
because they are so
massive
• There is a direct
relationship between
mass and inertia.
![Page 12: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mass
• Mass is a measure of the quantity of
matter in an object
• Mass also measures how difficult it is to
change the velocity of an object
• Or, how much an object resists changes in
its motion

Weight vs Mass
• Mass is the amount of matter in an object
• Weight is a measure of the pull of gravity on an object.
• Weight (Newtons) = mass (kg) x acceleration due to gravity (m/s2)
• Formula for weight: W = m g
• Q: How much does one kilogram weigh?
• A: 9.8 N

Free Body Diagrams
• A free body diagram is a diagram showing
an object in free space along with all
external forces acting on it
![Page 27: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Free Body Diagrams
• The usual steps in constructing a free-
body diagram are:
– Sketch the forces
– Isolate the object of interest
– Choose a convenient coordinate system
– Resolve the forces into components
• You can then apply Newton’s 2nd law for
each coordinate direction

Newton’s 3rd Law
• For every force that acts on an object,
there is a reaction force equal in
magnitude and opposite in direction.
• For every action there is an equal and
opposite reaction.
• An isolated force does not exist in nature,
so forces always occur in pairs
![Page 51: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Newton’s 3rd Law
• Action−reaction forces act on two different
objects: hence they do not cancel
• Action−reaction forces generally produce
different accelerations, since the masses
of the objects are likely to be different

Apparent Weight
• When you are in an elevator accelerating
upward a scale would read a greater weight
• When you are in an elevator accelerating
downward a scale would read a lesser
weight
• Thus, your apparent weight in an
accelerator is different from your true weight

Normal Forces
• When an object rests on a surface, the
surface provides a force on the object in a
direction perpendicular to the surface
• This called the normal force, N
• In most cases, the normal force is equal to
the weight of the object; however it can be
greater or less than the weight of the
object

Support (Normal) Force
Solid surfaces exert a force, called a support force, on objects pressed against them.

100 Newton Support force (Normal Force)
Downward force (weight) balanced by upward force (support).
* The term “normal” means “perpendicular”. So the normal force is always perpendicular to the surfaces

Normal Forces
• For an inclined plane, the normal forces
are still at right angles to the surface, but
not in the vertical direction
• It is convenient to choose the x axis
parallel to the incline surface and y axis
perpendicular
• Then normal force is:

Everyday Forces Section 4.4
Two types of Friction
•Static •Kinetic
![Page 73: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Friction
• Friction is the force that opposes motion when two surfaces are in contact
• Opposes motion means that the force of friction is always in the opposite direction of the motion
• There are two different types of friction: static and kinetic (sliding)
![Page 74: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Static Friction
• Static means stationary or not moving
• When a force is first applied to an object, static friction opposes the start of motion
• A force greater than that of static friction must be applied for the object to start moving
![Page 75: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Kinetic Friction
• Kinetic means related to motion
• Kinetic friction opposes motion once an object is moving
• Kinetic friction in general is less than static friction
• This means you have to push harder to start an object moving than to keep an object moving
![Page 76: Newton’s Laws of Motion - Parkland School · PDF fileunless an outside, unbalanced force acts ... –Sketch the forces ... toward the front of the car. Explain, using](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051723/5aabc4857f8b9a8f498c5e95/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
What Affects Friction?
• Speed of pull? (assuming v>0)
• Area in contact?
• Weight of object?
• Materials in contact?

Ff = FN
s > k is the coefficient of friction

What if . . . ?
• FA < Ff
• FA = Ff
• FA > Ff
• Ff is NOT an “applied” force!!
